in Typing Dilemmas

When interacting with other typology enthusiasts, I always keep in mind that someone’s self-proclaimed personality type may be wrong. It’s not that I openly question them, or immediately doubt them, but I can’t immediately assume that they’re typed correctly either, else I’d risk integrating inaccurate data into my understanding of the types. Any data I […]

It’s extremely common for extraverts to mistype as introverts. There are a couple different reasons for that, starting with the fact that a lot of personality theory content is written by introverts. Introverted content creators can fail to capture the extraverted experience correctly. They often depict extraverts as far more extreme than the average extravert […]

in Paid Requests, Significant Figures MBTI Types

Recently, we received a request to analyze Walt Disney’s Myers-Briggs personality type. I’ve been wanting to study more real life examples, so I jumped on the opportunity, and it didn’t disappoint. To get a well-rounded picture, I watched a couple of documentaries that can be found on YouTube, and I also checked out interviews and […]

in Personality Theory 101

Personality theory attracts all kinds and ages, and every individual has their own unique struggles with finding their personality. Although, some people might have no problems whatsoever, landing on their personality type in mere minutes after taking their first personality test. This article that I’m writing today is specifically about some struggles that I’ve noticed […]

Back in 2019, I wrote an article on inferior Fe from my perspective as an ISTP. Originally, I was incredibly hesitant to do it, because I’ve never really been a fan of sharing my experiences as they relate to my emotions. However, the goal of this blog is to promote an accurate understanding of the […]

in Jungian Theory

Yes, I intentionally said “inferior functions” in the plural. Typically, as the result of Myers-Briggs, people often refer to a singular inferior function, rather than multiple. However, that‘s not specifically what Carl Jung was referring to when he called a function “inferior”. In this article, I’m going to delve into what Carl Jung meant when […]

in Movie/TV MBTI Types

Bernadette Rostenkowski from The Big Bang Theory is typically identified as the ENTJ Myers-Briggs personality type (often referred to as MBTI). It takes this character a little while to hit her stride, so to speak, but once Bernadette settles into a consistent personality, the Te is clear. So with that being said, we primarily debated […]

in Movie/TV MBTI Types

Leonard Hofstadter from the Big Bang Theory is typically identified as the ISFJ Myers-Briggs personality type (often referred to as MBTI). We’ve occasionally seen people suggest INFJ for him, and we seriously considered that in addition to ESFJ. However, ultimately, we think that ISFJ makes the most sense for Leonard.

in Jungian Theory

The auxiliary function is actually somewhat controversial, which is partially what drove me to dedicate an article on it. However, it’s worth stating that Carl Jung actually says very little on the subject in his book, Psychological Types, hence why it is subject to such debate. I’m going to go over the section that he […]

in Movie/TV MBTI Types

Raj Koothrappali from The Big Bang Theory is a relatively obvious example of the INFP Myers-Briggs personality type (often referred to as MBTI). I don’t believe there’s any other prominent theory on this character. So, with that being said, I’m just going to launch right into the INFP cognitive function breakdown for Raj Koothrappali. The […]
